Combination LED lamps
View Patent ↗Various embodiments of a combination lamp are provided, which combine a plurality of different lamp functions in a unitary configuration, and can reduce the total amount of space taken up for at least substantially the same amount of illumination produced. The combination lamps can be configured for use on vehicles, light fixtures, free standing lamps, decorative articles, etc. In some embodiments, each lamp component may have a power connection element independent from the other lamp components.
1. A combination LED lamp assembly comprising:
a first lamp in an inner portion of the assembly, having one or more first LEDs and a first power interface; and
a flange at least partially surrounding the first lamp, the flange including a second lamp having one or more second LEDs and a second power interface and a third lamp having one or more third LEDs and a third power interface coupled to a switch,
wherein the first lamp is a stop/turn/tail lamp and the second lamp is a back-up lamp, and
wherein the one or more third LEDs are amber LEDs and the flange including the second lamp and the third lamp is configured to provide a dual color amber white flashing warning lamp function when the switch coupled to the third power interface is turned on,
wherein the assembly includes a connector wire configured to select a flash pattern from a plurality of flash patterns when the switch is turned on, wherein the plurality of flash patterns comprise dual color flash patterns and single color flash patterns, and wherein when a single color flash pattern is selected, the connector wire is further configured to toggle to an alternate color, thereby enabling the flange to flash amber only, white only, or amber and white.
2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the third lamp is further configured to provide an amber turn light.
3. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the assembly is configured to be mounted on a vehicle.
4. The assembly of claim 3 , wherein the flange includes a plurality of holes and the assembly is configured to be mounted on the vehicle via the holes.
5. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first, second, and third lamps are connected to a common power source.
6. A combination LED lamp assembly comprising:
a first lamp in an inner portion of the assembly, having one or more first LEDs and a first power interface; and
a flange at least partially surrounding the first lamp, the flange including a second lamp having one or more second LEDs and a second power interface coupled to a switch,
wherein the first lamp is a stop/turn/tail lamp and the second lamp is a back-up lamp and a work lamp,
wherein the one or more second LEDs are high output LEDs configured to provide the back-up lamp function at a first luminosity when the switch coupled to the second power interface is turned off, and to provide the work lamp function at a second, higher luminosity when the switch coupled to the second power interface is turned on.
7. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the one or more second LEDs are configured to provide a light output of about 310 lm when operated as a back-up lamp and about 1,000 lm when operated as a work lamp.
8. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the assembly is configured to be mounted on a vehicle.
9. The assembly of claim 8 , wherein the flange includes a plurality of holes and the assembly is configured to be mounted on the vehicle via the holes.
10. The assembly of claim 6 , wherein the first and second lamps are connected to a common power source.
